Barstool Sports Chud Has Heated Gaming Moment, Tells Virtual Joel Embiid To "Go Back To Africa"
If there’s one thing that is true in this world, it’s that anyone who spends a substantial amount of their time recording themselves playing video games will eventually say something regrettable on camera. There have been many heated gaming moments in the past, and there will be more in the future....

<i>Mike & Mike</i>, Now Mike And Mike, Reunite As Mikes To Celebrate <i>Mike & Mike </i>
It looks like time (and awards) heals all Mike wounds, because Mike Golic and Mike Greenberg appeared pleased to be in each other’s company last night as they were inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame, less than two years after they reportedly could barely even make eye contact with each other of th...

Bears Kicker Cody Parkey Hit The Uprights Four Times In One Game
Bears kicker Cody Parkey missed two field goals and two extra points in Chicago’s 34-22 win over the Lions today. But he didn’t whiff them: He hit the uprights on all four of his misses. (Parkey did successfully convert two extra points.)...

Let's Remember The NFL's Greatest Forgotten Coaching Rant
Behind the scenes, whenever he might have been shooting the shit or just taking questions from reporters when there weren’t cameras around, Jerry Burns had a penchant for weaving curse words into whatever he was saying. ...

Mike Gundy And Tom Herman Cook Up Some Beef, Then Quickly Throw It Away
The ending of Oklahoma State’s 38-35 victory over Texas on Saturday night got a little beef-y when Longhorns coach Tom Herman had to be restrained from coming at Cowboys coach Mike Gundy right there on the field. For a moment, this one had some real sizzle. But in the end, there was nothing to savor...

My Goodness, The Jaguars Are A Mess
It is remarkable just how quickly a team that was one competent quarter away from the Super Bowl, and still looked like world-beaters two weeks into this season, has so completely fallen apart. Remarkable not for the why of it—injuries have taken out their top wide receiver, top running back, top tw...

David Price Tells Alex Bregman To "Post That" After Getting Blown Away By Nathan Eovaldi
The ALCS was largely beef-free, outside of the front offices. Certainly no player-on-player enmity, like we’re seeing in the senior circuit. The closest thing was Houston’s Alex Bregman posting before Game 3 an Instagram story showing that night’s starter Nathan Eovaldi surrendering back-to-back-to-...

Alex Bregman Tries To Get Under Nathan Eovaldi's Skin Before Game 3
Astros third baseman Alex Bregman hasn’t recorded a hit in the ALCS, although he almost spoiled Red Sox closer Craig Kimbrel’s Game 2 save and does have six walks, which gives him a perverted .000/.700/.000 slashline for the series. Maybe the video Bregman posted Monday on Instagram served two purpo...

Doug Marrone Has Been Waiting Four Years To Stick It To The Jets
The Jaguars beat the Jets 31-12 on Sunday, and it was about as one-sided as an NFL game gets. Jacksonville nearly tripled New York in yards from scrimmage, and nearly doubled their time of possession. But it wasn’t quite enough for Jags head coach Doug Marrone, who sent his team out to go for two in...

Doug Marrone Claims He's "So Pissed Off" At Not Reaching A Super Bowl That He's Never Watched One
Jaguars coach Doug Marrone probably should have coached in the Super Bowl last season and, if he had, he would have witnessed his first Super Bowl action in, uh, over 40 years, somehow? Marrone told ESPN today that he didn’t watch last season’s Super Bowl, not even to scout for the Patriots this wee...

Tottenham's Son Heung-Min Avoids Compulsory Military Service With South Korean Gold Medal At Asian Games
Here’s some happy news, especially for Tottenham fans and, uhh, the friends and family of members of South Korea’s national soccer team: Forward Son Heung-min, facing two years of compulsory service in the South Korean military, has earned an exemption via the only route available—a gold medal in th...

Alex Bregman Is <i>Pissed</i> About This Fan Interference Call
The Rockies beat the Astros 3-2 on Charlie Blackmon’s first career walk-off home run, but there was nearly as much drama to be found earlier in the game, when Alex Bregman led off the sixth with what looked like a triple—until the Rockies challenged, and Bregman was called out due to fan interferenc...

Masa Saito Was A Great Wrestler And Half Of Pro Wrestling's Most Famous Arrest
Masanori “Masa” Saito, known as Mr. Saito to a generation of American wrestling fans, passed away at the age of 76 last weekend following a long struggle with Parkinson’s disease. An Olympic freestyle wrestler in 1964, Saito was a legendarily hard man and among the most universally respected people ...

Starling Marte And Gregory Polanco Combine For Rare Slice Of History With Double-Header Dingers
History has a habit of repeating itself over and over in sports, especially in baseball. Saturday afternoon Starling Marte and Gregory Polanco got in some history-making of their own: they became the third teammates in MLB history to amass back-to-back home runs in both games of a double-header. Thi...

Astros Get A Walk-Off Win On Probably The Weirdest Play You Can Imagine
Alex Bregman drove in a run from second on a ball that traveled maybe five feet from home plate, and the Astros walked it off against the A’s on Tuesday night thanks to one of the dumbest and most random game-ending plays you will ever see....

Former Tigers Pitching Coach Claims He Was Fired For Calling A White Player "Spider Monkey"
Tigers pitching coach Chris Bosio was fired on Wednesday, just a few months into his first season, for what the team called “insensitive comments” to a team employee. Those around the Tigers organization have stayed remarkably tight-lipped about what it was that Bosio said, but WXYZ first reported t...

South Korea Are Overmatched, But At Least They Have A Superstar
Four years after a disappointing showing in Brazil, South Korea had the great misfortune of being drawn into a very tough group in Russia. The Taegeuk Warriors have enviable top-end talent in Son Heung-min and Ki Sung-yueng, and if they had been drawn into the groups that their fellow Asian qualifie...

Hafþór Björnsson Is Officially The World's Strongest Man
Hafþór Björnsson, who portrays Gregor Clegane on Game of Thrones, was the world’s second strongest man last year—not without controversy—but in this year’s competition in Manila, he finally reached the top of the mountain....

Mike Confuses Not-Mikes For Mike
It’s been a few weeks since Mike Greenberg (Little Mike) started his post-Mikes career as the host of Get Up!, a morning show which does not feature Mike Golic (Big Mike). On the eve of the show’s launch, Little Mike gave an interview in which he expressed what seemed like wistful longing for his ol...

What Did Gabe Kapler Fuck Up This Time?
Phillies manager Gabe Kapler had a hell of a first week on the job. First he mismanaged the bullpen to the point that he needed to put a position player on the mound just a few games into the season, and then he tried to make a pitching change before anyone had been given a chance to warm up. The se...
